​

A number of pilot studies were conducted in preparation for the NSRI.

​

 

In Year 1,  we conducted two pilot studies:

​

• A pilot study of the randomised response as a method to be used in a nation-wide survey on research integrity in The Netherlands & its ethics approval

​

• Disciplinary field specific detrimental research practices in the Dutch academic setting – a focus group study & its ethics approval

​

​

In Year 2, we conducted 2 pilots on the explanatory variables to be included in the national survey:

​

• Researchers’ scientific norms, views on open science, perceptions of competitiveness, and trust in published findings.

​

• Is science just? Researchers’ views on organizational justice in science, open science practices, responsible research practices, the detection of questionable research practices, and trust in published findings.

​

The ethics approval for these studies can be seen here.
